This file explains how to replicate Figures 2 and 3 in “Multidimensional Premarital Investments with Imperfect Commitment”. 

The software Matlab was used to generate these figures.

All details are described in the program files.  


<Figure 2 Men’s relative bargaining power and investments>

-- Figure 2 can be replicated by running the program " Fig2.m".
-- To run " Fig2.m", one requires "Fig2_solve.m" as a function in the program, which specifies a set of first-order conditions when the sex ratio is balanced.


<Figure 3 Equilibrium investments with unbalanced sex ratio>  

-- Figure 3 can be replicated by running the program "Fig3.m"
-- To run " Fig3.m", one requires " Fig3_solve.m" as a function in the program, which specifies a set of first-order conditions when sex ratio is imbalanced.
